Trump Bombed Iran. Now He’s Screaming About Gas Prices.
Trump’s Iran Attack Pushes Oil Prices Higher as Hormuz Closure Looms
🚨 ACTION ALERT: Gas Prices Are Spiking—Tell Congress to Stop Trump’s War Games
This is more than headlines. It’s your wallet, your family, your future. If Trump isn’t stopped now, the next oil shock could be permanent. Read this report and then call your representative. The Capitol switchboard script is at the end. 👇
Donald Trump ordered military strikes on Iran this week, targeting underground nuclear sites in Isfahan and Natanz with bunker-buster bombs. He bragged about obliterating their infrastructure—but back home, Americans are already paying the price.
Oil markets panicked. Brent crude surged nearly 10%. U.S. gas prices jumped over 20 cents per gallon in some states. And the fallout isn’t over.
In direct response to the attack, Iran’s parliament voted to close the Strait of Hormuz—a critical global oil chokepoint. While the vote is non-binding and largely symbolic for now, the threat alone sent global markets into chaos. Experts warn that if Iran actually blocks the strait, oil prices could explode.
And guess who knows it?
Trump does.
That’s why he’s now screaming on Truth Social:
“KEEP OIL PRICES DOWN! …DON’T DO IT!”
He’s begging the free market to calm down after he threw gasoline on it. Just days earlier, he was barking “DRILL, BABY, DRILL!!!” at the Department of Energy. Now he’s panicked.
This is what you get when a man with no plan and too much ego runs foreign policy by gut instinct and campaign optics. A stunt for headlines—paid for by you at the pump.
He started this mess. And he’s trying to run from it in real time.
📞 CALL TO ACTION: Contact Congress Now
If you’re angry that Trump is dragging us into war while gas prices soar, call your member of Congress today. Demand action to rein in this reckless escalation and protect American families from another oil war.
Here’s what to say:
🗣️ Capitol Switchboard Script:
Hi, my name is [YOUR NAME], and I’m a constituent.
I’m calling to urge [REPRESENTATIVE OR SENATOR NAME] to take immediate action to oppose Donald Trump’s military strikes on Iran and to publicly speak out against any attempt to escalate into a wider conflict.
Trump’s reckless bombing campaign has already triggered a spike in oil prices and is driving up gas costs for working Americans.
Iran’s vote to close the Strait of Hormuz threatens global supply chains, and this could devastate our economy.
We can’t afford another war for oil. I expect [REP/SENATOR NAME] to stand up now and demand congressional oversight before things spiral out of control.
